How to wear a fedora without looking like a neckbeard

Step. -1: Don't be overweight
Step. 0: Take care of your loving face and shave your neck
Step. 1: Find an actual fedora. None of that pinstriped stuff, and if it's from Hot Topic, just burn the forgeter and start over
Step. 2: Make sure the fedora actually fits well with your head shape, ex. a tall crowned fedora on a tall thin head makes you look like an alien
Step 3. Dress the part. Collared shirt required and a suit that either match nearly perfectly or contrast to a degree
Step 4. Be a gentlemen. For this I'm going to just copy the paragraph I'm lifting this stuff from

When in a home, restaurant, or part of a larger building that is not a hallway or lobby, take your hat off. When the national anthem of any country is being played, sung, or professionally hummed, take your hat off.
And for the love of all things good – this one brought a fit of rage out of me – when you’re visiting the museum at Auschwitz, TAKE YOUR DAMN HAT OFF.


Also I like fedoras, and I actually have an old short-brimmed fedora that belonged to my grandfather somewhere in my house, but I doubt I'll ever look good in it

wow I thought a lot of people on blockland were fine and then I forgetin saw this thread, holy stuff
90% of all blocklanders go on reddit, so I'm hardly suprised by this.

Step. 2: Make sure the fedora actually fits well with your head shape, ex. a tall crowned fedora on a tall thin head makes you look like an alien

ohhhh for forget's sake

no, no no, stop.

ok the deal with fedoras is that there's a social stigma against them because people dress like this, act like 'gentlemen', but then end up not only looking like total forgetin dorks but they also look like total forgetin dorks IN A DORK UNIFORM, which causes everyone to associate dorkiness with that particular method of dress

3 different guys pulled this stuff at my school. 3 different guys had to have me explain to them why people were laughing.

all the wrong people wear fedoras
you have to have one of a very particular set of face types to not look like a doucher in a fedora.

that being said the majority of us probably wouldn't look good in a fedora as adults

society makes fedoras to hard to wear

Yeah you need to be completely serious and have a face to match. Otherwise you'll look like a richard trying too hard.


Fedora's shouldn't be worn because at best they neither add nor diminish from your over-all appearance but it's very easy for them to detract from your appearance. Of course a gorgeous 10/10 guy wearing a $3000 suit is going to look great with a fedora but he would have looked great without the fedora. If you're average and wear a fedora it will make you ugly and if you are ugly and wear a fedora it will make you a neckbeard and if you're a neckbeard and wear a fedora kill yourself. There's no reason to wear something that has no chance of improving your appearance.

Guide to wearing Fedoras

1. Look at yourself in the mirror.
2. Don't wear a fedora

Depends if you are fitting to wear one. Majority of the people who wear fedoras look really stupid. I've noticed it's mostly losers who want to be 'rebels.'


society makes fedoras to hard to wear
no you just look like a friend when you wear them. just accept the fact that you'll always look handicapped in a fedora, they are out of style and stupid. no one wears disco pants anymore because you'll look like a friend. get with the times or deal with it.

I like fedoras, but we shouldn't wear them because suits and other clothes that they go with aren't casual wear any more.
